Your project to build a simple shopping site seems to be going pretty well, but not exactly as planned. You got caught a bit short on resources, but think you have a new developer coming in to help soon. But you are pleased with your existing staff's productivity so far. You decided to delay the build on the home page because it had lots of slack time, and few dependencies. The team member assigned to the image update got some of the basics done and some images set up, but then ran into a snag that will take a while to resolve. You had her go ahead and start on the browsing page. You also managed to get a resource to work on setting up the test environment and test plan so you can be a jump ahead of things for the UAT.
It is now Friday Feb 28, indicated by the vertical red line in the Gantt shown above.You just had a meeting with your team to get a status report on each of the tasks in the WBS. The cost data and percent complete data is in the attached spreadsheet.You are preparing a status report for your client so you can go over it on Monday morning, March 1. Complete the spreadsheet and prepare a FEW slides that show the client where the project stands in terms of cost and schedule. Be sure to let her know what you currently estimate the final cost and finish date to be.
Depth of Thoughtwill be evaluated on your conclusions and how well you communicate to the client about current status and future expectations.
Technical Toolswill be evaluated on how you calculate EV, SV, CV, and the relevant future projections that you need to present to the client. (ETC, EAC, etc.)
